alpryce

I've rented here for around 4 years, and love it here. It is close to Subiaco and Leederville for restaurants and nightlife, but relatively quiet. Cambridge Street and the Hersdman Lake (Herdsman Parage, Moondine Drive etc.) has a lot of affordable appartments, then off the main road are more expensive, generally older homes. Some subdivision of larger blocks, but still a lot of big old houses.

However, as a young couple, there isn't a lot in terms of affordable but slightly bigger accommodation (ie. we are in a 1 bed appartment, but to find a reasonable sized 2-3 bed, it is too expensive for us). There are appartments, there are houses, but not really many villa/townhouses in the under $500-600k range. So we are now looking to buy elsewhere.
